A fresh batch of drama is on its way to Coronation Street, and this time around, it’s the teens taking center stage. With hidden snooping and surprise friendships, things are going to get interesting for the likes of Lauren Bolton and Betsy Swain.
Something Big Is Brewing Off-Screen
At the British Soap Awards, Cait Fitton and Sydney Martin let slip some big news about upcoming changes for Corrie. The duo let on that the producers are working on a significant story with the younger cast.
Cait explained that the episode brings together some of the younger actors, something that does not occur frequently. She explained that it was fun and felt new to shoot, so much so that she teased the crew probably needed a break after two intense weeks of young energy on set.
Coronation Street: Would Betsy and Lauren Be Friends?
Despite their rocky past, there’s a hint that Lauren and Betsy may slowly become allies. Cait said she thinks a friendship could develop eventually, but it will take time. Sydney echoed the idea, describing it as a slow-burn connection that’s already starting to take shape in recent scenes they filmed.
But before things thaw between them, Betsy gets caught up in another piece of drama—this time with secrets surrounding her deceased mum, Becky.
Betsy Uncovers Lisa’s Secrets
In future episodes, Betsy snoops around Lisa’s belongings and finds a mysterious box. Sydney revealed that Betsy becomes curious when Lisa becomes defensive. She said the tension leads Betsy to believe her mum has something significant to hide.
Sydney also said Betsy is sick of being spoken to like a kid. She understands that her mum has withheld things from her “for her own protection,” but she now wants to know the truth, even if she has to unearth it herself.
Now that secrets are unfolding behind closed doors, Coronation Street’s younger gang is set for a sensational comeback. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for all your Coronation Street gossip and news!
